Highcliffe Care Centre

Situated in Witherwack, a quiet residential area, north of Sunderland city centre, Highcliffe Care Home has gained a reputation across Tyne and Wear for the excellence of its care and strong sense of community.

The situation on Whitchurch Road is close to the Fulwell Quarry Nature Reserve and not that far from the sea. The home is light and airy throughout and the good-size bedrooms come with en-suite washrooms.

The lounges are inviting spaces for social activity or just for sitting quietly, and the garden can be a spot for action or a quiet space as well. There are plenty of seats, a gazebo and raised beds full of plants for our green fingered residents.

Highcliffe is only a short drive to the beach, so you’ll often find our minibus heading that way, and its occupants enjoying a bracing stroll. Life within our care home is always stimulating and varied as we recruit energetic Activity Coordinators whose job it is to provide something that everyone can get involved in, whatever their interests, every day of the week.

We like our forays away from our nursing home and visit all manner of local Sunderland attractions, whether it’s trips to the theatre, bird watching in the countryside or just a Sunday lunch down at the local pub. Our family and residents’ committee plays an important role in choosing activities and steering home life in general.

If you’re beginning to explore either residential or specialist dementia care then please do get in touch with Highcliffe. Our dedicated Home Manager, Adam Kane, would love to talk you through the care and support provided to our residents.
